Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: (C) P–4; Q–2; R–5; S–1

Explanation

Datum is the organising continuous reference(4); symmetry balances equivalent forms(2); hierarchy establishes relative importance(5); rhythm uses recurrence(1). Thus C. Description 3 defines an axis rather than the more general datum.
